Become an IATEFL Member

BELTA is an associate member of IATEFL (International Association of Teachers of English as a Foreign Language). One of the benefits is that all BELTA members can receive a substantial discount on IATEFL membership.

BELTA is one of over 100 teaching associations aligned with IATEFL worldwide. There is a substantial benefit to our community based on this partnership. This partnership allows us to network with ELT professionals who have presented at BELTA Day, written for THE BULLETIN, or given a webinar in our 'Sundays with BELTA' series. Every year, one of our Board Members attends an Associates Day at the IATEFL Conference, where we network with our fellow associations and form links the world over.

As a member of BELTA, you are entitled to receive a discount on your IATEFL Membership. The normal fee for joining IATEFL is currently £59, but you can join IATEFL for only £21.50. If you are interested in becoming an IATEFL member at the reduced fee, please send an email to our Membership Officer. They will reply with a form that you need to fill out along with your BELTA Membership number if you have forgotten it. Fill out this form, pay your fee and submit to IATEFL.

There are a number of benefits associated with your IATEFL Membership. You can read more about these benefits on the IATEFL Membership page. But, one of the biggest benefits is that IATEFL membership is necessary to win either of our two TRAVEL GRANTS.
